Description

Simonskloof Mountain Retreat - Faraway Cottage is situated 50 km West of Montagu and offers quality accommodation options for a family or group of friends looking to go off-grid. It boasts beautiful views and is nestled in the ecotone of the Succulent Karoo and Mountain Fynbos. The kloof is habitat to countless medicinal plants and abundant wildlife, making it the ideal venue for Yoga and Healthy Living workshops.

This cottage can accommodate 4 guests and comes equipped with 2 bedrooms. The main bedroom features a queen-size bed and the second bedroom features 2 single beds. Other in-room facilities include a bathroom fitted with a shower and a kitchenette fitted with a fridge, two-plate gas hob, and tea- and coffee-making facilities. This unit also comes equipped with a fireplace and an outdoor bathtub. There are lovely braai facilities available for guests’ use during their stay and guests are afforded secure parking on the premises.

Occasionally we also offer dinner bed & breakfast. A unique African-Swiss cuisine prepared on the open fire and naturally served by candlelight. Simonskloof features small rock pools, hiking trails, mountain biking trails, and guided outdoor activities such as canyoning, wilderness trekking, and abseiling are on offer.

Since 1999 the owners have created a 60 km long network of hiking trails leading up the mountains and down into deep gorges. The Gecko trail has become part of the roughly 750 km long Rim of Africa, Africa’s toughest and longest mountain traverse.
